A lot of people I know with mobility issues also have income issues as a result, and cannot afford to "buy in" to car culture and thus are enormously harmed by everything being built around personal vehicle ownership, but I guess that's not a very heavy weight on the scales compared to "I don't want to walk or take public transit"Blockade posted:Seems weird for them not to include mention of disabled people with conditions that keep them from driving also this yeah coward closed their replies too lmao

wheres the we cant have transit because large dogs guy. show yourself coward https://blog.theanimalrescuesite.greatergood.com/boji-dog-istanbul/ Officials Put A Tracker On A Dog Using Public Transportation And Learned He Traveled 30 Km Every Day Boji is a very intelligent animal and locals have gotten to know him quite well. He navigates his way through the public transportation system on his own, taking the tram line, Metro, and sometimes he would even hop on a train.

https://www.texasobserver.org/the-road-home/ I get renting sucks but this decision sounds pretty insane quote:Before she moved, Lafleur had been renting an apartment less than 10 minutes from her office, but she wanted to own a home in the city where she grew up. She soon realized her nonprofit salary wouldn’t get her very far. If you can’t afford to buy in Austin, Lafleur says, “You’re left up a creek without a paddle. Or you use that paddle and you travel to Cedar Park.”

most american modernist furniture is uncomfortable as gently caress and is far too expensive for something designed to be mass produced (bent plywood and steel tubing), and the equally popular scandinavian modernist furniture is even worse (tho generally priced more appropriately given the material costs). what you want to do is buy your chairs from a black clad religious devotee who lives in the middle of corn country instead. all of the austere grace plus it’s built for multigenerational households

If you're buying something that's plywood you might as well just go to ikea I only have three major pieces of furniture, and they were purchased from DWR or blu dot at between 45-60% off because they were promo items or floor models. Besides that I have a dresser, a couple side tables, a few floor lamps, a few chairs, a rug, a desk and uh... yep that's all you need. quality over quantity if you don't give a poo poo what your furniture looks like though then just go on craigslist or w/e actionjackson has issued a correction as of 23:07 on Oct 28, 2021 |

Fitzy Fitz posted:Oh I'm not judging I just constantly marvel at the expense of things (like cars) I've seen all sorts of insanely expensive modern furniture (typically because there are certain names and items that are famous as gently caress) so it's all relative. the smallest saarinen dining table (i.e. the 36" tulip table, see my avatar) is like 2200. the original florence knoll two seat sofa is 10k, and her marble credenza is like 15k. and denmark has it's own stable of designers that command insane prices, like finn juhl, arne jacobsen, hans wegner, and uhhh (see attachment) but the only ones buying this poo poo are dumbass rich people so I'm fine with the grift. and almost all of this stuff is constantly ripped off, so a lot of times when you see it in home staging or w/e it's fake

Ikea makes most of their stuff from MDF anyways because it's less expensive to produce and form the 'good stuff' is made w MDF because they get higher margins on it

Eventually it would crack. it is true that the internal frame of the eames recliner above is plywood, but then it's veneered. I have no idea if MDF even existed when that chair was originally made though. actionjackson has issued a correction as of 06:15 on Oct 29, 2021 |

It’s like how you can drive fast on the Autobahn: just because it can never work in America doesn’t mean that it’s unworkable. In much of Europe, people are expected to actually take care of and control their pets. In Norway and Sweden I believe it’s even illegal to spay or neuter as an elective procedure
